Anseong-si Supports Out-of-Pocket Expenses for 'Maternal and Newborn Health Care Services'

Up to 90% of the Shortened and Standard Self-Payment Amounts

On the 16th, Anseong City in Gyeonggi Province announced that it will support a portion of the out-of-pocket expenses for the 'Maternal and Newborn Health Care Service' to create a better environment for pregnancy and childbirth and to alleviate the financial burden on families with newborns.

The 'Maternal and Newborn Health Care Service' is a program where health care professionals visit families with newborns to assist with maternal recovery and newborn care.

Since 2022, Anseong City has been providing partial support for out-of-pocket expenses, in addition to government subsidies, based on factors such as fetal type, birth order, and service duration for families using this service.

The out-of-pocket expenses are supported based on the service period. For the shortened and standard plans, 90% of the paid amount can be reimbursed, and for the extended plan, support is provided similarly to the standard plan.

Eligible applicants are mothers who have been registered as residents or foreigners in Anseong City from six months before the expected birth date until the application date. After the service ends, applicants must prepare the required documents and visit the Public Health Center's Maternal and Child Health Team or the Gongdo Health Life Support Center within 60 days to apply.
